99 times what equals 49?

99 times what equals 49? In other words, what do you multiply by 99 to get 49? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "99 times what equals 49?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

99 • x = 49

Which can be written as:

99x = 49

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 99 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 99.

99x/99 = 49/99

99x/99 is x and 49/99 is 0.4949 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.4949
